A True Italian Cheese Making Experience
We had an incredible time at Caseificio Starace. We ended up having a bit of experience getting lost on the way and getting there as we had the wrong address (was not listed correctly on Apple Maps), but Angela was amazing and came to the spot we were and picked us up where we were! Seriously grateful to her and Antonio's grace and care, not just during the tour but to help us out when we were lost on the way! The experience itself was great! Angela showed us how their cheese was made and how every part of the process (the whey, cream, etc...) is used. We got to mold and make cheese, and the lovely cheese tasting afterwards in their garden was incredible. You might fine other mozzarella experiences, but the homestyle feel of our time there was incredible! Thank you guys!
Response from the operator: Thank you so much

Fun and Informative Mozzarella Demonstration
My teenaged son, spouse, and I had a great time watching how mozzarella is made, shaping it, and then tasting it along with other local foods. We learned that Starace is one of only two that doesn't use chemicals to speed up the process of cheesemaking so it's much slower and more traditional. We also learned that the weather in different parts of Italy affects what cheeses can be made in those locations. Our hosts were wonderful, and it was great to see a family business still going strong after generations. We originally were going to go to another dairy, but that one seemed quite disorganized. We were all glad it worked out to come to Starace instead.
Response from the operator: Thank you very much 🙏🏻

Fantastic Class!
I really loved this class! Antonio was a great teacher and very personable. He taught me about his third-generation family business. He walked me through the steps of making mozzarella, showing the process in his facility. I can’t wait to try making mozzarella at home :)

Mozzarella for the family.
The nicest people. Very authentic experience at a generations old family business. We made our own mozzarella and then had a tasting. We loved it and recommend it highly.
Response from the operator: a thousand thanks !!!

Mozzarella shaped like an elephant? Yes please!
Angela and Antonio were lovely hosts for our morning at Caseificio Starace. We were able to park in the driveway, which took away the headache of finding parking. Loved seeing the authentic cheese making experience. Our meal on the patio with red wine, salami, bread and multiple fresh cheese and butter was stellar. Antonio made an elephant and a pig for our kids, which they were astounded by! Appreciated hearing the stories and traditions from this fifth generation family-run business. My only surprise was that we only spent about 5 minutes ourselves working with the cheese (the 4 of us forming our own balls, 1 of us making a flat pizza shape, 1 of us stretching one piece). In previous cheese making classes we have been involved at every step (cutting, stirring, stretching, forming, etc.) so I would classify this as more of an observation class than a hands-on class. Still a memorable experience and I would recommend!

Why this scores 84
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Mozzarella Experience with Tasting in Vico Equense: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Sorrento.
How much does Mozzarella Experience with Tasting in Vico Equense cost?
+
Prices start at $38 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Sorrento usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Mozzarella Experience with Tasting in Vico Equense take?
+
Plan for about 2 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Sorrento is not rushed.
Is Mozzarella Experience with Tasting in Vico Equense worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 84 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 111 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Sorrento, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Mozzarella Experience with Tasting in Vico Equense?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Mozzarella Experience with Tasting in Vico Equense suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Mozzarella Experience with Tasting in Vico Equense?
+
Around 39 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Sorrento can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Sorrento and add a light layer if any part of the 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Mozzarella Experience with Tasting in Vico Equense start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Sorrento within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Sorrento?
+
On Outty we rank every Sorrento experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Pizza School with Wine and Limoncello Tasting in a Local Farm, Private Amalfi Coast Day Tour from Sorrento or Naples, Sorrento Farm and Food Experience including Olive Oil, Limoncello, Wine tasting. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Sorrento?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Sorrento?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
